DimensionalRift Permission System

Overview

DimensionalRift features a granular permission system that allows server owners to control exactly which settings players can modify in their rifts. By default, all players can modify all settings, but server owners have complete control over these permissions.

Basic Commands

• 
  
  
  • dimensionalrift.use - Allows using the main rift command

• 
  
  
  • dimensionalrift.create - Allows creating new dimensions

• 
  
  
  • dimensionalrift.enter - Allows entering dimensions

• 
  
  
  • dimensionalrift.delete - Allows deleting dimensions

• 
  
  
  • dimensionalrift.list - Allows listing available dimensions

Settings Permissions

Each protection setting has its own permission node:
| Permission Node | Description | Default |

| dimensionalrift.settings.blockbreak | Modify block breaking settings | ✓ |
| dimensionalrift.settings.blockplace | Modify block placing settings | ✓ |
| dimensionalrift.settings.mobspawn | Modify mob spawning settings | ✓ |
| dimensionalrift.settings.explosions | Modify explosion settings | ✓ |
| dimensionalrift.settings.firespread | Modify fire spread settings | ✓ |
| dimensionalrift.settings.croptrample | Modify crop trampling settings | ✓ |
| dimensionalrift.settings.itemdrop | Modify item dropping settings | ✓ |
| dimensionalrift.settings.itempickup | Modify item pickup settings | ✓ |

Admin Permission

• 
  
  
  • dimensionalrift.admin - Gives access to all commands and settings (default: op)

How It Works

Default Behavior

• 
  
  
  • All players can create and manage their own rifts

• 
  
  
  • Players can modify all protection settings in their rifts

• 
  
  
  • Only the rift owner can modify their rift's settings

• 
  
  
  • Server operators have access to all commands and settings

Restricting Permissions

Server owners can use permission plugins (like LuckPerms, PermissionsEx, etc.) to restrict access to specific settings.

# Prevent all players from modifying explosion settings
/lp group default permission set dimensionalrift.settings.explosions false
# Create a VIP group with access to specific settings
/lp group vip permission set dimensionalrift.settings.blockbreak true
/lp group vip permission set dimensionalrift.settings.blockplace true
/lp group vip permission set dimensionalrift.settings.mobspawn true
# Give a specific player access to all settings
/lp user <player> permission set dimensionalrift.admin true

LuckPerms Example:



In-Game Experience

1. 
   
   
   • Players only see settings they have permission to use in the /rift settings help menu

1. 
   
   
   • If a player tries to use a setting they don't have permission for, they'll receive an error message

1. 
   
   
   • The rift owner can still modify their rift's settings if they have the required permissions

Best Practices

For Small Servers

• 
  
  
  • Keep the default permissions (all enabled)

• 
  
  
  • Use the admin permission for staff members

• 
  
  
  • Monitor player behavior and restrict permissions if needed

For Large Servers

• 
  
  
  • Create different permission groups (e.g., Basic, VIP, Premium)

• 
  
  
  • Restrict certain settings by default

• 
  
  
  • Gradually unlock more settings as players progress

For Roleplay Servers

• 
  
  
  • Consider restricting settings that could break immersion

• 
  
  
  • Create custom permission groups for different roles

• 
  
  
  • Use the permission system to enforce server rules
